Well... You can forward your reviews. I don't know if I'll be able to verbalize reviews at first. Just thinking about it puts a knot in my stomach. I am glad I know the truth. But, it is still hard to think of even without seeing it for 2 hours.

I guess I'm kinda a weakling when it comes to stuff like that. I can't for the life of me understand the realities of life back then when people really did watch stuff like that for entertainment. It makes me shudder talking of it. I am not made of strong enough stuff for that.

So, it is with a lot of difficulty that I plan to go see this. But, I'm going. I am not sure if I can handle the thing. But, I'm gonna try.

He was and Is a rose growing in a sea of ugliness. The uglier it is, the better the Passion seems by comparison.

I would expect that it will be hard to look at, and I fully expect that.

I have been fascinated so far by the extreme polarization that has been occurring in the reviews. Clearly, the film brings people to a decision point, and it is left to the individual to decide what to do with what they have seen.

Seems to me that it is very much like the gospel in that regard. Eventually everyone must confront it and make a decision about it. People will have taken sides whether they like it or not. In many ways, that's just like the gospels themselves.

It may well be that this mere movie, if it really captures what I hope it might, could be the small stone that starts an avalanche.
